    Passive Crossover Choice

    I intended to cobble up some 501-8A crossovers for use with my current loudspeaker project, 416B in 14cu.ft. BR enclosure with 802/511B on top, until I can use the DCX2496. I then thought that my speakers were similar to the Altec 9845A model which uses the N500G crossover network. The 500G is for 16ohm use.

    I figure that by halving the inductor values and doubling the capacitor and resistor values I would get an 8ohm version. Would this be more suitable for my speakers than the 501-8A/

    Am I overlooking something?

    Cheers, Marshall.

    Opinion is only as valid as its verifiable supporting evidence.
